Ingress protection ratings refer to the level of protection given by a casing, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating refers to protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (water).
Scoring IP54, the Huawei FreeBuds 5i's rating is read as, the first number of 5 denotes that ingress of dust is not totally prevented but dust does not enter in harmful quantities to interfere with the correct operation or impair safety, and the second value of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes.
Compared to the Huawei FreeBuds 5i, Tozo T10S have a rating of IPX8 meaning that
no data available to specify a protection rating
and that of liquids is that,
Huawei FreeBuds 5i has a lower liquid rating than Tozo T10S
Huawei FreeBuds 5i have a weight of 9.2g . We take in account a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to carry.
The Tozo T10S, at 10g
are heavier than the Huawei FreeBuds 5i with a difference of 0.8g
For a device to be true wireless it must have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Huawei FreeBuds 5i are true wireless for this matter since they don't have wires. This is a major difference as some wireless earbuds have cables connecting the 2 earbuds .
Tozo T10S also is true wireless because it has no wires linking the 2 earbuds together.
Huawei FreeBuds 5i have sweat resistance
Tozo T10S's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc

Both Tozo T10S and Huawei FreeBuds 5i have stereo speakers
Tozo T10S are rated 1meters any depth more than that they will be spoilt. Devices that have a higher depth rating are better for swimming.
Active noise cancellation uses advanced technology to actively cancel noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 hence "diluting" the noise.
Huawei FreeBuds 5i have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.
Huawei FreeBuds 5i sit tightly in place, this creates an acoustic covering that reduces your environment noise and also prevents the device sound from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction this means that both limit ambient noise without using technology to cancel it out.
Huawei FreeBuds 5i have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, the unit size determines the loudness of the device.
Tozo T10S driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Huawei FreeBuds 5i by 2mm
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they deliver better quality sound.
The Huawei FreeBuds 5i's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Tozo T10S's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can produce equal bass
Huawei FreeBuds 5i's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device generates high recognizable frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it.
Tozo T10S's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
Huawei FreeBuds 5i generate a clearer and crispier treble than the Tozo T10S
The Huawei FreeBuds 5i's battery life is 7.5 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Tozo T10S's battery life is
more than that of Huawei FreeBuds 5i by 0.5 hours
. Every time you recharge your device, they get a little less playing time. The effect is not noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
This is given by the vendor, and Huawei FreeBuds 5i's case has a full charge of 20.5 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.
Tozo T10S's charging case has a battery life of 28 hours,
more than that of Huawei FreeBuds 5i by 7.5 hours
It requires 1 hours to fully charge the Huawei FreeBuds 5i's battery. It is highly adivsable to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
